Liverpool defender, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Glen-Johnson-c15050 heaped praise on his side for bouncing back from their FA Cup final defeat on Saturday to record a comfortable 4-1 win against Chelsea, in their final home game of the season on Tuesday.

The English International felt that his side had completely outplayed the Blues on the field, and it was a perfect way to shrug aside the disappointment of their FA Cup final defeat against the Londoners.
While talking to reporters, he said: “We wanted to start where we left off in the final and we did that. The lads started well, kept the pressure on and did really well for the full 90 minutes. There was only one team in it.”
Earlier on Saturday, the Reds lost 2-1 to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 in the Cup final after conceding two goals during a poor first hour performance. Even though they put up a spirited show in the final half-an-hour of the game, it was not enough to prevent the Londoners from
claiming their 4th FA Cup silverware in the last 6 attempts.
The 27-year old said, “If we knew why we played the way we did for the first hour on Saturday we wouldn't have done it.”
Nevertheless, the defender who has capped 94 appearances for the Reds in all competitions felt that the win will serve as a confidence booster for his team, going into the start of the next season.

“Now we have to try to get another three points at Swansea and try to finish as high as possible. We want to finish seventh and if we beat Swansea we've got a chance of doing that.”
